WATER TRANSFER PUMP CALCULATION 18-05-14

PROJECT : VANTAGE @ PLOT NO.JVC 18TCP006

Water Transfer Pump (WTP) (Located at Underground Pump Room)

FLOW CALCULATION:

Total Domestic Water storage on Roof Floor = 90 cu.m

Therefore the water to be filled in 3 hours = 90,000 Liters.

Hence the Total Transfer pump capacity = 90,000 / (2 x 3600)

= 12.5 l/sec

Hence Flow of Pump selected = 13 l/sec

Hence the Transfer pump-1 selected as 1 Duty and 1 Standby each with Flow of 13 l/sec

HEAD CALCULATION

H= (H1+H2+H3+D.P)

Where H Total Manometric head

H1 Actual Height
H2 Friction loss in Pipe
H3 Friction loss in fittings @ 40% H2
D.P Discharge Pressure required @ 1 Bar

H1 Calculations

H1 = Vertical Height

Height Difference between Underground Level pump room and roof level is 121 m.

H1 = 121 Mtr.

H2 Calculations

Horizontal Length of the pipe = 60 Mtr.

Total Length of the pipe = 181 Mtr.

Max . Pipe Size = 160 mm PPR

When 13.0 L/ Sec (207 US Gpm) Water Flows Through a 160 mm PPR Pipe,

Friction loss in 100 Mtr. = 1.3 Mtr.

Therefore, Friction Loss in 181 Mtr.

H2 = 2.4Mtr.

H3 Calculations

H3 = 40 % of H2

H3 = 0.4x 2.4= .96Mtr

TOTAL HEAD H Calculations

Total Head H = (H1+H2+H3+DP)

H = (121+ 2.4 +.96 +10)

= 124.36 Mtr.

Head Aprox. H = 125 Mtr.

Hence head considered, H = 13 Bar

Hence the Water Transfer pump (WTP) selected as 1 Duty and 1 Standby of 13 l/sec @13 Bar
each.

(Electrical power consumption of 24 kw each)
